Holistic Harmonies and their Travelling Carol Singing Trio will bring a 'Musical Mood Boost' of festive joy to organisations in Liverpool!

by Holistic Harmonies Community Interest Company in Liverpool, England, United Kingdom

 New stretch target

Our aim is to reach as many people as we can between 9th and 23rd December 2021.  The more money we can raise, the more work we can do!

Here at Holistic Harmonies it is very important to pay our professional musicians fairly for their work - this maintains a high standard of delivery, and let's face it... music gives us all joy, so we should support the arts as best we can!

In order to tour around Liverpool for 2 weeks, we would need to raise a total of £10,000 (working with pay guidelines from the Musician's Union).

This would cover: rehearsals, promotional material, publicity, project management, stage manager, performers fees and travel for 3 musicians, insurance, photography, administration, documentation and evaluation.

I don't know if you know much about the funding world - but they want to see proof of the impact of our work... this is why we need photographers to document what we're doing, we need to take time to record feedback from our participants and to present it so that future funders can see what we've achieved.

Please know that by supporting our project you are giving someone the gift of warmth, connection, community and song this Winter.

Thank you, Rachel x


Holistic Harmonies is a mission driven Community Interest Company using music, movement and song to promote positive wellbeing and togetherness for the family and wider community across all lifespans.

In December 2020, Holistic Harmonies brought together three Liverpool based musicians to perform with organisations, and on people’s doorsteps during the festive season. The aim was to bring a 'Musical Mood Boost' to people experiencing loneliness and isolation during the turbulent year of 2020.  

We partnered with community based organisations to reach a wider audience of people experiencing hardship in the community as well as a social media campaign asking for nominations of people in the community who were deserving of a doorstep performance.

We had such positive feedback that we would like to repeat the project and complete another tour of musical interactions in order to maintain and enhance the relationships that were built.  The collective mood across the country is still that of uncertainty and we’d like to bring some connection to those most isolated, especially families; singing has proven to be a successful mood booster and conduit to feelings of belonging and togetherness; supporting positive mental health.
